9 Vintage Caravan Design Tips to Bring Your Unique Style to Life

Use your imagination and create a design scheme that goes beyond vintage florals. If you’re having trouble coming up with an idea, find a photo, a roll of wallpaper, a chandelier, etc. to act as your muse.

Have faith in your ideas and don’t let other dissuade you from your path. Vintage 1950’s style accents are in style right now, but that’s not the only option available. Let your heart guide your imagination — it will always lead you in the right direction.

Create a foundation for your design by cleaning your caravan from top to bottom. Fix any leaks and make necessary repairs to both the inside and outside of the caravan. Then track down and install any missing bits like indicator light covers, hub caps, etc.

No matter how you design your caravan, make sure that the flooring is able to withstand regular use. Also, the floor should be easy to clean. Take things one step further by turning the flooring into a design feature. A good option is the black and white checkered flooring — it’s a simple design that makes a bold statement.

Give everything a thorough once-over before you make any drastic changes. Your focus should be on restoration instead of replacement. Think outside the box and use the design elements that can be restored to inspire your design. If something draws your eye (even in a bad way), ask a restoration expert for more information.
